We have been participating in the project for several years now and think it is an amazing opportunity for everyone. The Dictionary Project is an amazing program for everyone since it provides materials for students who might not otherwise be able to acquire them.

This is our second year. Last year, the student were thrilled to receive the dictionaries and could not believe they could take them home.
